Al-Qur'anic Signals Regarding Community-Based Islamic Education Approaches: Analysis of the Concepts of Yad'ûna and Ya'murûna

In the Qur'an, there are various sources of knowledge, which explain various aspects of life, including education. This research aims to find out the signs of the Qur'an regarding community-based Islamic education so that it can be implemented in the Islamic education process. As for the method used in this research, because this type of research is qualitative research, the data used is from literature, that is, all the data and materials used are data or library materials that are appropriate to the problems raised. Meanwhile, the library materials used as research objects are books, journals, magazines, or other writings related to community-based Islamic education. The results of this research show that in the Qur'an two terms imply community-based Islamic education, namely the terms yad'ûna and ya'murûna. Many other terms refer to community-based Islamic education, but these two terms are directly mentioned in the Qur'an, and that is what differentiates them from other terms. Apart from that, the terms yad'ûna and ya'murûna have the meaning of calling for the implementation of God's commands. So community-based Islamic education organizers with the words yad'ûna and ya'murûna get a noble place before Allah. In the end, community-based Islamic education is an effort that brings good luck in this world and the hereafter.

Dysmenorrhea Impact and Insights: A Statistical Analysis among Allied Health Professional Students in West Bengal, India

Introduction: Dysmenorrhea is a prevalent gynecological disorder that is characterized by the presence of unpleasant menstrual cramps. This condition has been found to have significant medical, psychological, and social implications for individuals who experience it. Although commonly seen as an inherent characteristic of a properly functioning reproductive system, it can potentially operate as a diagnostic tool for underlying illnesses. Regrettably, dialogues pertaining to dysmenorrhea are sometimes prohibited, particularly among males, within diverse cultural contexts.
 Objective: The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the level of knowledge and attitudes among allied health professions students enrolled at various universities of West Bengal (WB), India with regard to dysmenorrhea. This study aims to examine the impact of cultural variables on the knowledge and communication surrounding dysmenorrhea, specifically within conservative Indian districts.
 Methods: The study sample consisted of 494 students enrolled in allied health professions faculties at different universities of WB. Data collection took place from September 2021 to February 2023. A meticulously designed survey was employed to gather data pertaining to the various sources of knowledge, levels of awareness, attitudes toward discussing dysmenorrhea, and willingness to engage in conversations about menstruation with prospective females. Data interpretation involved the utilization of statistical analysis techniques, such as descriptive statistics and correlation analysis.
 Results: In terms of demographic composition, the study consisted of 86% female participants and 14% male participants. The mean knowledge scores of females (14.41 ± 3.14) were found to be considerably higher compared to males (13.75 ± 4.56). The primary sources of information were the internet (58.3%), maternity figures (48.8%), and educational institutions (46.2%). An observed positive connection (r = 0.244) was found between age and knowledge levels. The participants exhibited a general hesitancy to openly engage in conversations on menstrual symptoms, however, they demonstrated a readiness to engage in discussions about menstruation with their prospective daughters.
 Conclusions: The present study brings attention to the gender discrepancies in knowledge levels pertaining to dysmenorrhea among allied health professions university students of WB. Additionally, it emphasizes the influence of cultural norms on knowledge acquisition and communication around this topic. The statement underscores the need for destigmatization initiatives, comprehensive teaching on menstruation health, and fostering open communication within academic institutions and the broader community. The aforementioned findings offer valuable insights that can inform future educational endeavors and healthcare procedures within this particular subject.

Kokyu Studio in Wrocław: A Place of Practice

This article attempts to outline the most important assumptions of the work of Kokyu Studio led by Przemysław Błaszczak and Joanna Kurzyńska and based at the Grotowski Institute in Wrocław in Poland. The Studio’s educational and artistic programme is founded on the idea of a ‘place of practice’, which captures the philosophical, practical, aesthetic, and ethical horizon of the activities common to all members of the Studio. The regularity of practice, exposure to long working processes, and the improvement of the quality of movement, which are rooted in several traditions and methods of work, allow practitioners to study their own development and integrate various sources of knowledge. Reflections here also ask questions about the place and application of such a model of work in the context of contemporary challenges for actor-performer training.

Представления российских специалистов сферы детства о доказательном подходе и их ожидания от взаимодействия с научным сообществом

<p>The article presents the results of the qualitative study of Russian child welfare service professionals’ attitudes towards evidence-based practice. Based on a reflexive thematic analysis of interviews with the professionals from 12 social service organizations several themes have been developed and discussed: 1) evidence-based practice as an important current trend, the connection to which gives several advantages (greater attraction for donor organizations and clients, peer recognition); 2) evidence-based practice as an opportunity to master a new culture of justification and communication; 3) evidence-based practice as a search and organization of new forms of interaction with the scientific community. Russian social service professionals tend to accept the instrumental understanding of the evidence-based practice that is transmitted to them by foundations, donor organizations and the expert community, however, their image of practice as a complex activity that requires taking into account many factors and referring to various sources of knowledge can potentially become the basis for more advanced multifaceted and critical understanding of the evidence-based practice – provided the support of such an understanding, including from the scientific community.</p>

Метадані як засіб семантичного аналізу складних контентів великих даних. Зображення

The purpose of the research is to specify effective approaches for improving the semantic analysis of graphic contents of big data. This article considers images or video scenes as examples of such complex contents. Proposed approach takes into account the special features of these contents and create a hybrid annotation model that extends the text annotation model with more specific elements. For the visual data, these are characteristics of visualization. Determining the similarity of information contents is a critical problem for solving big data tasks. It is the basis for the big data categorization and enables the composition of the documents, conversion of an unstructured contents to relevant knowledge structures and the visualization of the information. Semantic analysis of information contents is usually based on their metadata, which form the basis of semantic annotations. Also, they are elements of a structured semantic description of the content and the basis for its automated processing. The approach is based on using ontologies to define semantic annotations. Ontologies provide various sources of knowledge to measure semantic similarity, contain a lot of information about the interpretation of concepts and other semantic relationships with a hierarchical structure based on hyponymy relations. But, in recent years, there is the rapid growth of the number of images and video resources. And, at this time, we can note a significant enrichment of available visual information. From a visual point of view, it is easier to understand whether two concepts are similar. Therefore, the integration of semantic and visual information of the image ensures the optimization of the ontological methods for similarity estimation and allows to obtain similarity metrics that are more consistent with human perception. De facto, such assessments of the complex semantic similarity of concepts are defined by the composition of two functions, the first of which, in fact, is an ontological measure of similarity, and the second is built on the basis of a complex facilities vector. It is a concatenation of semantic and visual characteristics with an established weight balance between these two types of features. The combination of visualization features with semantic and ontological characteristics of the contents in the similarity metrics is the central idea of this study.

Searching for the 'Trigger': An ethnographic analysis of parental beliefs regarding autism causation and vaccination in Puerto Rico.

This study examines the personal beliefs held by parents of autistic children in Puerto Rico regarding the cause of their child's autism and how these beliefs may influence parental vaccination decision-making. This study seeks to contribute towards diversifying the autism literature by focusing on an autism community living in a relatively lower income, resource-deficit context. These findings expand our understandings of how parents of autistic children may perceive vaccines and how these perceptions are informed by various sources of knowledge. This ethnographic research study was conducted between May 2017 and August 2019. Methods included 350+ hours of participant-observation and semi-structured interviewing of 35 Puerto Rican parents of autistic children. 32 of these 35 parents interviewed believed autism to be the result of genetic risks that are 'triggered' by an unknown environmental factor. Suggested 'triggers' included various environmental contaminants and vaccinations. The subject of vaccination came up in every interview; 18 interviewed parents did not believe vaccines 'triggered' autism, 3 parents attributed their child's autism entirely to vaccines, while 14 considered vaccines to be one of several possible 'triggers'. It is important to note that no parents interviewed perceived vaccinations to be inherently or universally harmful. Rather, they perceived vaccinations to be one of many possible 'triggers' for a child predisposed to develop autism. In some cases, this perception prompted parents to oppose mandatory vaccination policies on the island. Parents shared nuanced, complex understandings of autism causation that may carry implications for COVID-19 vaccine uptake within the Puerto Rican autistic community.

Between Adoration and Criticism Towards Japanese Colonialism：Reception Toward <i>Murudeka 17805</i> Movie in Indonesia

This research study on how a collaborative war movie between Indonesia and Japan entitled <i>Murudeka 17805</i> (2001) is received in Indonesia. Through content analysis of the movie, it is found that this movie depicts the intimate yet hierarchical relation between Indonesia and Japan, whereas Japan acts as the elder sibling who guides and will transfer their knowledge and skills to Indonesia, so that Indonesia may be able to fight against the colonizers. This is in line with the ideology of Greater East Asian War, termed “Greater Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere.” Through the comments analysis of YouTube viewers, the result shows that there are comments expressing gratitude and adoration toward Indonesian and Japanese soldiers who had fought in the battlefield, and on the other hand there are also comments criticizing Japanese colonialization and arguing that the movie itself is a propaganda movie. The number of comments expressing gratitude and adoration and expressing neutrality by inviting the readers to forget about the past is larger than the number of comments criticizing the movie. The result of this study shows that this phenomenon is related to several factors：younger generation who never experienced Japanese occupation, the history lessons in schools which focusing more on memorizing events rather than critically reflecting on the past, the act of silencing critics toward Japan by Indonesian government in 1970s, and the massive spread of Japanese pop culture in Indonesia since 1990s. Although the number is not as high as grateful and adoring comments, comments that have critical reflection toward the movie still exists. The commentators are usually those who have heard stories about Japanese occupation in the past from the previous generation or have learned about it from various sources of knowledge.

Practical application. The practical goal is to examine the education and to increase the understanding and awareness of the free time of young people. Originality. This study is original and creative, and it contributes to better understanding of the role of management in leisure activities on students’ emotional, social, cognitive and work competencies.

Research on Collaborative Innovation of Supply-Side Reform of University Ideological and Political Education Based on Intelligent Big Data Information Fusion

The times are changing with each passing day, and the traditional ideological and political education cannot adapt to the information age. Schools overemphasize theory, weaken the implementation of practice, ignore the needs of students, and lack electronic equipment to assist learning. All these factors make ideological and political education in colleges and universities stay in a superficial form and do not really lead students to study deeply. Innovation introduces supply-side vision, reforms educational theory structurally, and accelerates the transformation of classroom style. Let teachers and students leave the shackles of the classroom, learn from various sources of knowledge, and carry out personalized learning from their own areas of interest. The results show that (1) after data fusion, the credibility of ideological and political knowledge is 91%, which is better than other methods. (2) The knowledge base constructed by the laboratory meets the standards of colleges and universities, and its quality passes the standard, but its timeliness is slightly poor, and the test result is about 85%. (3) Learning interest model can push personalized knowledge according to students’ characteristics. (4) In the actual scene, students’ ideological and political education shows a benign development trend. The results of this study are quite satisfactory, which verifies the practicability and effectiveness of the proposed method and obtains feasible results.

Konieczna lekcja uświadomienia historycznego młodzieży. Narodowa tradycja i współczesność

This article focuses on the reflections from the period of lockdown and the risks brought by Covid-19 during Spring 2020. History is one of the key subjects that have a significant impact on the shaping of attitudes in a society, as well setting goals for the future, as well as the young. Historians teach how to interpret the past, important facts and essential universal values, and creativity in the pursuit of knowledge. The school education system should be open and implement a model based on showcasing different views and social phenomena. This is where the teachers and history lessons focus their efforts and work towards that common goal. The school education system allows the use of various sources of knowledge, teaching how to critically assess its content. It allows you to step beyond the textbook and support the formation of social awareness in the young generation.

Technology Development Recommendations of Artificial Intelligence used in Library

The library is a place to read books with various collections so that readers can get various sources of knowledge. But in this technological era, people want things that are more practical. With the presence of Artificial intelligence, it can be applied and integrated into the library system. A common problem when readers come to the library is to look for literature according to their choice, both in terms of the name, image, type, and form of the literature. Artificial intelligence can help in searching literature based on recommendations and ratings, so readers don't have to bother looking for the desired literature one by one from the available bookshelves. This certainly makes it easier for readers to search for literature, especially those who are confused about where to look. The recommendation system used is the recommendation method, where the method is a method that combines Filtering and Ranking. This research is intended so that readers who are in the library can easily and quickly search for their literature.

“It didn’t mean anything” – moving within a landscape of knowledge to interpret genetics and genetic test results within familial cancer concerns

Genetics is increasingly defining how we understand health and disease, affecting for some, their understanding of inherited disease, and the meaning of medical genetic information. When interpretations of hereditary conditions are determined, partly, by one’s familial experience of heritable characteristics and partly by various other lived experiences, the meaning of genetics becomes highly personal. Through descriptions of stocks of knowledge, this paper describes findings from a qualitative study with a cohort of Black and Asian women with family and personal histories of cancer, about their interpretations of their genetic tests. We describe their interpretations as shaped by different experiences of biomedical practice as well as familial experiences of cancer and genetic testing; and we introduce a metaphor of “moving within a landscape,” to show how those interpretations were created and influenced by various sources of knowledge and life experiences.

Adolescent Sexual and Reproductive Health Counselling in Relation to Female Genital Cutting: Swedish Professionals\u2019 Approach to Menstrual Pain as an Empirical Example

In Sweden, as well as in an international context, professionals are urged to acquire knowledge about possible health effects of female genital cutting (FGC) in order to tackle prevention and care in relation to the practice. While professionals are guided by policies and interventions focusing on medical effects of FGC, some scholars have cautioned that many popular beliefs about health risks rest on inconclusive evidence. The way professionals understand and respond to health information about FGC has in this context largely been left unexamined. This article aims to provide a qualitative exploration of how professionals in Sweden approach adolescent sexual and reproductive healthcare encounters in relation to acquired knowledge about FGC, using menstrual pain as an empirical example. The analysis shows that there was a tendency in counselling to differentiate young migrant women’s menstrual complaints from ordinary menstrual pain, with professionals understanding pain complaints either in terms of FGC or as culturally influenced. The study shows how professionals navigated their various sources of knowledge where FGC awareness worked as a lens through which young women’s health complaints were understood. Biomedical knowledge and culture-specific expectations and assumptions regarding menstrual pain also informed counselling. Finally, the article discusses how FGC awareness about health risks was used constructively as a tool to establish rapport and take a history on both menstrual pain and FGC. The analysis also recognises potential pitfalls of the approaches used, if not based in well-informed policies and interventions in the first place.

The effects of external knowledge source heterogeneity on enterprise process and product innovation performance.

As a global manufacturing centre, China is transitioning from a ‘Made in China’ to ‘Create in China’ perspective. An ever-increasing number of companies are developing new competitive advantages and improving their innovation levels by acquiring external knowledge. Yet, studies rarely discuss the influence of various sources of knowledge on process and product innovation performance in China’s manufacturing enterprises. Based on the Pavitt industry classification, we use a bivariate Probit model to investigate the influence of external knowledge sources on innovation performance, and test it by using Enterprise Survey data for China, published by the World Bank in 2013. Our empirical analysis indicates that external sources of knowledge, with the exception of suppliers, have a significantly positive influence on process and product innovation performance. Specifically, in the process of technological innovation, peers have a positive effect on enterprise process improvement, especially in the science-based sector. In product innovation, close technical cooperation with users accelerates the commercial manifestation of products, especially in the specialized supplier sector.
